That could be put down to genital mutilation. There was the line where she said, I'm not a girl, which could just mean that she's not a girl but a vampire. It's strongly implied that Eli is a boy in LTROI.

i like the original and this one...with a slight edge going to the original. does anyone else find it hard to classify this as a horror movie??? i honestly thought this was more of a love story. i felt the same way about leon the professional.

I agree. I bought the blu-ray of "Let The Right One" in just to compare them and I thought this was superior. They actually managed to improve upon it. I love that they added a police officer to the mix. Very well done.

ill be making sure i have 20 bucks to buy it 1st day or first week of dvd release heard good things about it and Chloe Grace Moretz Has improved her career since amityville horror and big momma's house 2,She Better return in Kick Ass 2 or Ill be furious.

It is nice that you know that I know nothing I really do not need to see a remake of one of the best films ever made, sorry, was fooled too often by american remakes, even if the film is ok or good, what is the point ?. The story has been told perfectly with amazing actors, why should I bother to see this movie again with american actors ?

My dad and I saw the original in a theatre on Halloween night 2008 and we loved it. My dad hasn't been really enthusiastic about seeing this remake, but I have with its very positive reception. I didn't get around to seeing it, though, so I'll probably rent it. I also don't mind the cover.

SPOLIER WARNING!!!

SPOLIER WARNING !!!

she was shown to be a boy like in the book and original movie?

It's not explicitly mentioned but the whole script is infused with a gender theme (e.g. comments about Owen being a girl) which harks back to the fact Abby is a boy in the original book. Plus, the scene from the original where you see a crotch shot is in this version but there's no cut to the crotch shot, instead you see Owen look shocked at what he sees when Abby is getting dressed - and which is a knowing nod to those who've seen the original/read the book. It's an excellent film, can't wait for it to hit R2!

One thing tho, it mentions stephen kings quote, guys he ALSO put takers on his top 10 list. Yes takers the movie with one of the worst casts ever put on celluloid. I'm just saying..... But yeh like my previous comment i still liked this, i just couldnt avoid letting yall know what King said

I wanted to see this but never got the chance to. I saw Case 39 the same weekend because that's what my family wanted to see. I don't really regret it as it was a decent film but I would have preferred to see this movie. I will definitely Netflix this sucker.

Never saw original but saw this and liked it a lot. Sad it didnt do well in theatres. I dont know the replay value but its a worthy rental. Its really more of an emotional movie than a horror film and that is a good thing sometimes

great cover art. LET THE RIGHT ONE IN is one of THE best, most perfect (IMO) movies i've ever seen and i didn't go see this in theaters (most people didn't considering it bombed) but i will rent this. i DO love Chloe (can't wait to see her again as Hit Girl in KICK ASS!!) and i have heard from the 8 people who saw it that this was a worthy remake. the deleted scene (showing how Abby became a vampire from that gross, scary old man) was genuinely scary and heartbreaking. amazing performance by Chloe in that scene.

-------- edit: the deleted scene is on most horror movie websites. just sayin'.
